2018-Chevy-Equinox

The new 2018 Chevrolet Equinox is out now at Cox Chevrolet, but is it really new or is it better to stick with the previous 2017 Equinox? Fully redesigned after last year’s model, the new Equinox crossover features a:

  • Smaller and Lighter Body
  • More Power and Improved Gas Mileage
  • Quieter Cabin
  • New Audio System and Touchscreen Interface

Smaller and Lighter Body

First of all, the 2018 Equinox has a smaller and lighter body. For example, the wheelbase is 5.2 inches shorter, while the length is 4.7 inches shorter and its curb weight has been reduced by 400 pounds. Likewise, it has much more torsional rigidity than previous models as well.

Engine Power and Efficiency

Soon, you’ll be able to opt for a 2.0L engine as well as nine-speed transmission, which promise to give the Equinox some solid power and fuel economy rates. At the same time, though, its 1.6L 4-cylinder engine will give drivers as much as 40 mpg.

Quieter Cabin

The redesign has also helped decrease the amount of vibration and noise that you’ll experience in the cabin. This leads to a smoother and quieter driving experience.

Technology

Inside the new Equinox, you’ll have access to a wide variety of exciting features like:

  • Upgraded Driver Display Screen
  • Wireless Device Charging
  • 360-Degree Parking Camera
  • 7-Speaker Bose Audio System
